Works well

Patriot Xporter XT Boost 8GB Flash Drive (USB 2.0 Portable) Model PEF8GUSB
Patriot Xporter XT Boost 8GB Flash Drive (USB 2.0 Portable) Model PEF8GUSB

Pros: I bought this strictly for ReadyBoost in Vista and Windows 7. Works perfectly fine in this function on both operating systems., unlike one of the PNY Attache models I tried before this. I thought Windows 7 would recognize more than 4gb which is why I bought this 8gb model. It does, but you have to use more than one flash drive. There's still a 4gb limit per drive, like in Vista. Had I known that, I would have purchased the 4gb model. Oh well.

Cons: -1 Egg for form factor. The drive has a thick rubber casing which crowds or blocks adjoining USB ports. Might be a problem for some people, but I knew that before purchasing it. I use the included extension cable. Problem solved.

Junk

Pros: I'm not describing any Pro's about this product since it does not work well.

Cons: This thing has a hard time being detected by Windows XP. It was detected just fine out of the box, but once the drive was formatted, it was a crapshoot if XP would see it, even after device and computer reboots. 2 different computers gave the same result. Even tried a different USB cable. Yes the drive is set to Master. Back to Newegg it goes.

Overall Review: Quick shipping by Newegg!

Works Great

Linksys WRT54GL 802.11b/g Wireless Broadband Router up to 54 Mbps/ Compatible with Open Source DD-WRT (not pre-load)

Pros: Stable, has not dropped a connection in the 3 weeks that I've had it.

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: Seems to be just as stable as my older WRT54G version 2. I like it so much that I just bought another one for to replace a worthless D-Link that can't keep a connection for more than a few days. I'm going to use the D-Link as a paper weight, or maybe punt it across my yard a few times. I'll make another review after I post this one to show I really did snag another one.
